Full Moon Ceremony in Aries

Happy Full Moon in Aries! Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, it is forceful, direct, focused, yet fiery. It is the sign of independence and the youthful part of us that sets out on a quest or an adventure in order to expand beyond our known world.

Full Moon in Aries is usually one of the more intense full moons of the year and as it is in September, it is also a Harvest moon. Amplified by the recent Equinox, this Harvest Full Moon asks us to release the cycles and patterns of old, and using the fire of Aries, burn away the wounds, traumas, and pain we still carry, and transmute them into fuel for our evolution. We can use the challenges in our life as a force for healing rather than emotional upheaval.

In this ceremony, you’ll be honouring and using the experience of the past to encourage the birth of new narratives and possibilities.
